The Rogue Valley Soccer Club's under-19 boys Centaurs took a step in the right direction toward another Rogue Valley Cup crown on Saturday.

The Centaurs, who claimed the crown at the U16 level last year, coasted to two victories in the opening day of play at North Medford High behind strong goalkeeper play and a relentless scoring attack.

The Centaurs opened the day with a 12-0 rout of the Table Rock Soccer Club's Crew. The RVSC team followed with a 3-0 triumph over a game CABJ team from Sacramento, Calif., in the final contest of the afternoon.

Well, we started the weekend off right, said Centaurs coach Nathan Hansen, who, along with Chris Endrikat, has guided the team for the last four years. Nothing is foreseen, but it's a nice start for us.

Ricky Ferguson gave the Centaurs a 1-0 lead in the first half over CABJ. Fabian Garcia-Flores added to the total just before the 30-minute first half expired with another goal.

— Shane Holiday provided the final margin with a second-half score.

Goalkeeper Mike Belzberg had plenty of action, but didn't falter while maintaining the shutout.

Mikey didn't give them a lot of opportunities, said Hansen. He went out and got a lot of balls while they were in the air.

The Centaurs, who are primarily a U17 team playing at the U19 level, open action at 9:15 a.m. today against Chivas of Carson City, Nev.

Chivas and RVSC United could each provide strong resistance to the Centaurs' hopeful title run, according to Hansen.

They're both very strong teams, said the coach. We took (the Centaurs) to this level (U19) to get used to more physical play.

It's a good challenge for us.
